Bill Matyi with a nice brown caught on the South Holston River, February 19, 2011 (click for larger view).
Bill Matyi and Tom Khoury don't let a little Winter weather deter them from their regular excursions to the South Holston River.
They escaped the work-a-day worlds of their offices for a 3-day trip last weekend, guided by Altamont Anglers guide Teo Whitlock, who put them in the boat on Friday, February 18, and walk/waded them to some secret spots on Saturday and Sunday. The fishing was ridiculous on Saturday, with the two anglers netting over a 100 fish over the course of the day--which is why these spots must remain secret!
